Tuning into a radio station
1. Press either the AM or FM input source button.
2. Using the
and
Tuning buttons on the front
panel, tune into the station you desire.
When you tune into a radio station, > < surrounds the
displayed frequency. If you tune into an FM station in stereo,
then
surrounds the displayed frequency. If the signal is
weak, it may be impossible to tune into the station in stereo. In
such a case, press the FM Mode button under the cover on the
front panel. “Mono” appears for a few seconds under the
frequency in the front display. To return to stereo, press the
FM Mode button again. “Auto” appears for a few seconds and
then “
” appears to the right of the frequency. Some inter-
station noise may be heard, but the sound will not cut in and
out as it would if stereo was selected.
• The tuner frequency changes in 50 kHz increments for FM
and 10 kHz increments for AM.
• When FM is selected, you can use the auto-search feature
by pressing and holding down one of the TUNING
buttons. The tuner frequency will search in the direction of
the button pressed for the next station that can be tuned
into in stereo.
